Chapter 667: Chapter 660: Death Penalty Can Be Avoided, but It’s Hard to Escape the Living Punishment Chapter 667: Chapter 660: Death Penalty Can Be Avoided, but It’s Hard to Escape the Living Punishment “Hmm?” Muria, who had just approached, made a soft noise. The human shield warrior seemed to be asking questions, but in reality he was using a bizarre secret art to attract her attention and create an opportunity for his allies to act.

In the short span of this exchange, a rainbow-like bolt was shot at Muria by a wanderer dressed as a legendary bowman.

“Misfits.” Muria stopped in midair, reaching out to catch the arrow. She was not concerned about whether this would cause her harm. Such an attitude was naturally arrogant in the eyes of these human legends.

Wanderers are jack-of-all-trades professions, they mainly perform reconnaissance and detection, hence, they know how to stealth like assassins. As professionals in gathering intelligence, they sometimes need to confront their enemies directly. So they occasionally fill the role of warriors. Some wanderers will even use magic or a bow and arrow to cope with various emergencies, practically child’s play in comparison.

“It has some hint of the Elf bow and arrows, but it’s far from it.” Faced with this arrow that seemed to have been shot from a magic cannon, Muria had the mood to make a comment.

To the astonishment of the legendary human wanderer, Muria reached out and grasped the crimson arrow. There was no sound, no shock wave, and no explosion upon contact between her palm and the arrow.

Muria remained motionless in mid-air without any change in her complexion. The light from the arrow began to dim, revealing its form—a metal arrow covered with runes. However, the mighty force caused the arrow to turn into a heap of metal dust, dispersing in the wind.

As Muria took the arrow, the mage finished his spell. Compared to the scene caused by the wanderer’s arrow shot, the mage’s move was grander, truly showcasing the prestige of a legendary mage.

Above and below Muria, two legendary magic arrays took shape. A restraining force acted on Muria, attempting to immobilize her as if she were an insect trapped in amber.

“Such restraining power, it can stop an ancient dragon for three breaths, not bad.” Muria calmly commented, “Next is the main course.”

With Muria’s thought, Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire – the four elements – converged wildly from her four directions, then condensed into four differently-coloured Elemental Swords. Without giving her any extra preparation time, the Rune Swords with solid inscriptions on the blades shot towards her body, seemingly intending to kill her in one blow.

Boom! A huge rumbling sound echoed, and countless spider-web-like black space rifts spread out from Muria’s position as a center. A strong devouring force appeared, quickly swallowing up the elemental cloud formed by the explosion of the Elemental Swords, gradually revealing the attacked figure of Muria.

Such a terrifying attack aroused anticipation from the four legends. Even the Crystal Ancient Dragon that was lying in the mountains and regenerating its limbs couldn’t bear to watch anymore. It was obvious that Muria posed a greater threat than itself.

“With this kind of attack, he’d be either dead or seriously injured.” The legendary mage responsible for the powerful magic attack said with a pale face. It was clear that after launching this attack, his aura dropped significantly. This powerful legendary mage paid a great price for this strike.

“Don’t be careless, you saw it just now. With just one strike, Marceau was killed. Such a dreadful existence won’t be easily killed by us. Be prepared.” The legendary priest, who apparently didn’t do anything before, reminded them.

“The sword saint is not dead yet, it seems that you guys underestimate the recovery power of legends. Haven’t you ever killed so many bodies in one go?” A slightly strange voice echoed in the air, and the facial expressions of the four legends changed immediately. They saw a slender figure standing in the gradually dissipating elemental cloud, watching them without any expression.

“You’re actually unharmed, that’s impossible.” Seeing Muria unscathed, the legendary mage found it hard to accept. Because according to his observational skills, Muria had no injuries at all. This was impossible. Just now, such a large-scale space rift attack couldn’t possibly not weaken her energy.

“Nothing is impossible.” Muria’s icy gaze fell on the four legends, “Now it’s my turn! If you can survive my attack, I’ll spare you.”

In these four legends, Muria did not feel the breath that she repulsed, indicating they weren’t professional dragon hunters. So, at this time, the idea of annihilating them in Muria’s heart faded a lot.

Of course, while they could be absolved of a capital crime, they couldn’t avoid a felony. They were after all trying to kill a dragon and had even attacked her. Hence, Muria had no intention of letting them go and instead planned to arrest them all.

“Arrogant.” Hearing Muria’s words, the legendary shield warrior holding a heavy shield became furious. His towering body began to bulge slowly with hair standing on its end, appearing to be changing into a non-human form. At this time, he seemed more like a wild bear.

“Kill us in one blow? I’d like to see you try!” The humanoid bear, now five meters tall, lifted his expanding heavy shield and smashed it into the void, as if it were solid ground.

“Oof!” A familiar scene appeared before Muria’s eyes. A barrier with a metallic sheen appeared in front of Muria, blocking the four legends behind it.

“Interesting.” Seeing this scene, the corners of Muria’s mouth curved into a smirk. She had seen this move before, “Is this a common skill of human shield warriors? It seems…not that impressive!”

Muria raised her finger without gathering energy, a light pillar intertwined with thunder and flames shot out from her fingertip. The further away from Muria, the thicker the beam became. By the time it hit the steel barrier, its diameter was about ten meters.

Unlike the shield warrior who once withstood the slamming of an ice dragon formed by the collective strength of Clodia’s legion, this legendary shield warrior was only able to persist for less than three breaths under Muria’s divine energy flash. The iron wall shattered, and then the light beam hit the shield warrior’s body without losing speed.

Within the golden light pillar intertwined with dragon flames and thunder, the heavy armor on the shield warrior’s body gradually reddened, became brighter, and then started to melt. Under this high temperature, the face of the bear-like strong man also distorted, as if he were enduring unimaginable pain, but he never made a sound.

“A real man, not too shabby.” Muria praised and slowly put down her palm. There was no need to continue the attack.
